En savoir plus sur le livre
Dr Rae Duprae is an obstetrician with more than a passion for her work. Driven by the memory of her own mother's death in the back of an ambulance, she is possessed by an all-consuming mission to save the lives of the women and babies she encounters daily at Berkeley Hills Hospital. But she is suddenly derailed by a series of 'bad baby' cases that seem to be emanating from the politically sensitive birth centre across the street - a centre run by her ex-lover. This threatens the very existence of her department and, it seems, her career. When Rae decides to uncover the truth, she sets off a firestorm of resistance from all sides. And to make matters worse, Rae finds herself falling for the new member of the rival cardiac department - a doctor with uncertain allegiances.
